Khloe Kardashian Had Doubts About Having Her Own Show With Lamar Odom<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Khloe & Lamar <\/em>premiered April 10, 2011, on E!, seemingly a natural spin-off of the mothership Keeping Up With the Kardashians<\/em>, which had already spawned Khloe & Kourtney Take Miami<\/em> and Kourtney & Kim Take New York<\/em>.<\/p>\n But that was not Khloe’s idea, according to the now 41-year-old.<\/p>\n “Khloe & Lamar <\/em>was led very much by Lamar,” she said in the doc. “I was spread really thin. I also didn’t really want it to jeopardize the family brand, which was Keeping Up <\/em>at the time. I thought there were so many Kardashian shows, and I reminded him about his main career\u2014uh, the Lakers\u2014and just said, ‘Are you sure you want to do it?'”<\/p>\n Noting that shooting KUWTK <\/em>allowed her to “bounce around to different homes” and not<\/em> be “under a microscope,” Khloe admitted she was “a little concerned” about a show that was going to be in in their home all the time. “But I also wanted to make him happy,” she said, “and he was so excited about it.”<\/p>\n Destiny said of her dad, “He did love Khloe, but he’d wanted to be on reality TV for a long time.”<\/p>\n Or as Lamar put it in the doc, “Well, part of the deal was that, ‘If I’m gonna marry you, f–k it, I want in too.'”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
